Supported Networking

This section provides information about networking supported by your hardware and supported NICs on the Dell XC Series Hyper-Converged Appliance.

Intel OCP3 and Network Interface Cards (NIC) specify the use of only Intel branded SFP+ optical modules for use with optical cables. When ordering a system with optics, the appropriate Intel branded SFP+ optical modules are included with your order. If you already have SFP+ optical modules, ensure that they are the Intel branded modules before inserting into the OCP3 or NIC. Twinax cables are also the supported network cables for Intel OCP3 and NIC.

CAUTION: Using any brand of SFP+ module other than Intel during deployment disables the 10 GbE ports. Call Dell Support to recover port functionality.
WARNING: Hot-plugging an unsupported SFP+ module causes ESXi host to fail with purple diagnostic screen. Call Dell Support to recover from this situation.
